As many has expected, Jared Leto and Cate Blanchett has been one and only candidate to take Oscars home. I was rooting for Meryl Streep as well but I guess Oscars members must have thought, "Meryl had too much Oscars already". Uhm well not really, since Cate actually did superb on Blue Jasmine!
While not as many has expected, Lupita Nyong'o happens to beat Jennifer Lawrence. I actually prefer Lupita to win. I mean, not that JLaw failed at it, both did great and got their own charisma but if I have to choose then, Lupita Nyong'o definitely got better charm. Amateurly speaking, Lupita had gone through suffering as a miserable slave, a lot worse than JLaw as a lonely wife who desires attention. LOL but it happened right?
And here comes for the internet highlight, Oscar statue seemed to love being held by Matthew McConaughey rather than Leonardo DiCaprio. If only Dallas Buyers Club had not been released in 2013, I believe Mr. Oscar would gladly sit by Leo's bedside table. I guess he just got unlucky because everytime he got nominated, his other competitors were actually somehow slightly better than him. And it happened again this time as McConaughey is indeed dead unbeatable.

| Here for more important moments of Oscars 2014. |
Anyhow, so saaad that not a single awards had been taken home for The Wolf of Wall Street. Instead, Gravity won most of nominations and the best of all category went to 12 Years of Slave. It's good I guess as I remember indeed weeping a bit at 12 Years of Slave's ending. I got my emotions carried on by the whole plot. Though I solely wanted to watch it because of Benedict Cumberbatch and...... Shooot! I haven't reviewed it yet. So furthermore on next post then :p
Since I haven't really watched the show yet and I only youtubed some of acceptance speeches, so I'll best leaving this post with series of Oscars Buzzfeed links recap. Aaaand probably some of its best memes. ALSO MY REVIEW PROPHECY JUST GOT REAL (SORRY FOR CAPSLOCKING).
